It continues to amaze me how dumb half of America is.
Truly don't think it's half. It's just the way our elections and voting works. Every the stupid minority has a loud voice when we weigh votes instead of simply going for popular votes overall.
you can count all the people who don't vote in the stupid category, so actually more than half.
You need to factor effects from gerrymandering and other forms of vote suppression. I think there’s a lot of wealth trapped in the hands of a few very shitty people, which has allowed them to shape / distort perceptions of just how “popular” their values really are.
With the way American elections are setup, I'm expecting a lot of non voters didn't have had a choice...
Well there's also a lot of people that can't vote because they can't afford to take time off work, especially if they can't mail in their votes.
Remember that a lot of people couldn't vote. Either because of voter registration rolls getting purged or disenfranchisement from a criminal charge.
The second best result ever in terms of popular vote was Trump 2020, only behind Biden 2020. So it is close enough to half of America.
I like your optimisms.
